    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Ribena??? I'd rather chew my right hand off.

    I've got some cough medicine and menthol sweets.

    I ed up on my driving lesson. We had a drive out to the seaside and I was driving at speed but I messed up when I got back to Hull

    Hunni, we all make mistakes when we’re driving, even years/decades after passing our tests

    I got so frustrated with myself that I ended the lesson in tears. I was comfortably driving at 40/50/55mph but city driving completely threw me despite doing it all the time. Bob put it down to speed deceives and that now I've experienced it I'll be more aware next time

    I talked that through with Bob too, he said I need to not let the negatives outweigh the positives of my lesson. And I'm trying very hard not to do that. J has said that the sort of driving I did today can be very tiring and it was maybe tiredness setting in amd has told me that I have to rest now.

    I'm so used to beating myself up before anyone else can that it's taking a huge effort not to. Going to cross-stitch this afternoon
